I check the charity book table at my local shop more in hope than expectation of finding anything I'd be interested in amongst the old cook books, mountains of Jeremy Clarkson drivel and biographies of disgraced celebrities, but today I was rewarded for my perseverance with these two schlocky '70s tomes! 🖤🧌💚💀❤️🧛🏻♀️💚🧟♀️🖤 😱😁
Fun and quick read about the guys who made watching arguments entertaining. 👍🏼 I always enjoyed “Siskel & Ebert” — they were smart, sharp and opinionated. In this bio Siskel comes across as a jerk, though. 👎🏼 The “pranks” he played on Ebert behind the scenes weren‘t very funny — it sounds more like bullying to me. 😖 Thanks to @JoeMo and #AuldLangSpine for putting this one on my radar!
From another favorite movie of mine, The Birds.
The flapping of wings,
trapped like a bird in a cage;
predator now prey.

Better day at work. The collection development librarian let me take first crack at taking any of the weeded books before putting them on the cart for patrons to take because he knows I‘m interested in film. Took the tagged because of the author - I still haven‘t seen Citizen Kane! (Perhaps it‘s time to fix that 😆)
(2019 Ed.) It's a fast and humorous love letter to horror films in the form of a handbook for readers who think they might be in a horror movie and wish to survive. I expect that it would appeal most to horror fans: others may not get the joke, mistake it for ridicule, or find that it wears out fast. But I dug it, and if you enjoyed the Scream series for its meta commentary, or Cabin in the Woods for any reason at all then you may too.
This was such a fun coffee table book!
This book is just like the title suggests, good movies as old books. Essentially, movies turned into vintage book covers. The term “good movies” is subjective. The author states in his introduction, “These are films that made me laugh, cry, think, question, and celebrate” (pg. 7).
